The Three Lions will hope to live up to their star-studded squad.
Denmark will play England next on Thursday night and they just need one more victory to secure their spot in the Euro 2024 knockout round.
Slovenia held the Danes to a draw to start their Group C campaign, which put pressure on a team that performed well en route to the previous Euros semifinals.
In spite of their own problems on the first day, the Three Lions are favourites to drive them to the verge once more in Frankfurt after England were the team that eliminated Denmark in the Euro 2020 competition.
In Gelsenkirchen, Jude Bellingham’s goal proved to be the lone goal as Gareth Southgate’s team won despite having a strong start.
Still, England‘s revamped defence appeared really formidable and Bellingham was outstanding. Southgate’s team will try to advance in the competition and win the Euro 2024 cup.
Christian Eriksen scored the first goal of Sunday’s Group C match against Slovenia, marking his triumphant comeback to the continental scene precisely 1,100 days after going into cardiac arrest during Denmark‘s inaugural Euro 2020 match.
In the 17th minute, the Manchester United player scored his first goal after tucking down a beautiful flick from teammate Jonas Wind. But, Eriksen’s return was short of perfection as, 13 minutes from time, a long-range effort diverted by Slovenia’s Erik Janza cancelled out his opener, leaving both teams to split the points after a 1-1 draw.
